When "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes" began serialization in the UK, Zhou Hexuan had already stepped on the train to Tianjin.

On the train, Vivien Leigh observed the scenery along the way, and when she saw the ancient cities and ancient buildings of China, she would exclaim excitedly. But when she saw the withering and backwardness of China's rural areas, Vivien Li felt very disappointed, like a girl from a big city marrying into the countryside.

At this time, although the farmers in European countries were also poor, they were at least better off than the Chinese farmers, and Vivien Leigh seemed to have returned to India, where she had lived since she was a child.

Zhou Hexuan was reading a newspaper with content related to the "resumption of diplomatic relations between China and Russia". Mr. Sun Yat-sen's son, Sun Ke, once again stood up and called for the restoration of diplomatic relations between China and Russia, and immediately started a pen war with his opponents, which has been known throughout the country in recent months.

The resumption of diplomatic relations between China and Russia is the trend of the times, but the Soviet Union's approach is really a bit excessive, so that many Chinese are not used to it.

After the outbreak of the "September 18 Incident" last year, the Soviet Union took the initiative to propose to China to restore diplomatic relations, but at the same time, it made various overtures to the Kwantung Army, which aroused strong opposition from many patriots.

The attitude of the Soviet Union was complicated, it was first and foremost hostile and wary of Japan, believing that Japan's occupation of Northeast China was a signal that Japan was preparing to invade the Soviet Union. However, the Soviet Union's five-year plan was in a critical period, and it was completely unprepared for war, so it contacted China to restore diplomatic relations and curry favor with Japan to gain time to prepare for war.

What disgusting things has the Soviet Union done in the past year?

First, although the Soviet Union claimed to be neutral, it agreed to transport the Kwantung Army by the Middle East Road, which was tantamount to helping the Kwantung Army invade the Northeast.

Second, China actively rescued Japanese nationals and signed a non-aggression pact with Japan.

Third, allowing the "national flag" of the puppet Manchukuo to be hoisted on the Middle East Road was a disguised recognition of the puppet Manchukuo, which the Japanese government regarded as a major diplomatic victory.

Fourth, on the occasion of the Turkish Prime Minister's visit, the Soviet Union wantonly invited the diplomatic corps of various countries to attend the banquet, but turned away the Chinese representatives.

Fifth, the Soviet Union invited representatives of various countries during the military parade, but ignored China.

Sixth, the Soviet Union was coveting China's Xinjiang and secretly concluded an agreement with the local government of Xinjiang.

With such a two-faced approach, the Soviet Union actually had the face to demand the restoration of diplomatic relations with China, what do you make the Chinese think?

But there is no way, the resumption of diplomatic relations between China and the Soviet Union is beneficial to both countries, because there is a common enemy of Japan. While currying favor with Japan, the Soviet Union had quietly transferred troops to the Far Eastern border, and Japan was also frantically building fortifications in the northeast in order to prevent the Soviet Union from attacking.

To put it bluntly, the Soviet Union was plotting to infiltrate Xinjiang while actively preparing for war against Japan. And Japan, while invading China, was wary of the Soviet Union. Only China is a complete victim, it was beaten by Japan and cheated by the Soviet Union, and it has to try not to provoke Japan and consider whether to establish diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union.

Before Zhang Xueliang resigned from the post of mayor of Tianjin, he suggested actively cooperating with the Soviet Union and preparing to take the opportunity to take back the legal power of the Middle East Road.

Chang Kaishen was opposed at first for two reasons: first, he was afraid of provoking Japan, and second, he was afraid of offending Britain and the United States.

Now Chang Kaishen is inclined to support the resumption of diplomatic relations, and there is only one reason: the relationship between the American father and the Soviet Union has tended to ease.

At present, the two countries have entered the stage of actual negotiations, but there are two contradictions that cannot be resolved, one is the Outer Mongolia issue, and the other is the Middle East Road issue.

Zhou Hexuan only suggested taking the opportunity to take back the Black Blind Island, and the Soviet Union was definitely willing. However, the Nanjing Nationalist Government opened its mouth, not only wanting to take back the legal rights of the Middle East Road, but also to force the Soviet Union to recognize China's sovereignty over Mongolia.

The Soviet Union, of course, was unwilling, and the negotiations dragged on for months without progress, but recently it seems to have been a bit of an eyebrow.

The first is that the Japanese government openly recognized the "puppet Manchukuo", and China was in danger of separatism; The second is that the investigation of the League of Nations is extremely unfavorable to China, and Chang Kaishen began to be disappointed in many fathers such as the United States and the United Kingdom, and felt that he should make friends with the scoundrel of the Soviet Union to strengthen his courage.

As for the issue of Outer Mongolia and the Middle East Road, let's put it aside for the time being. And what Zhou Hexuan said about recovering the Black Blind Island, no one paid attention to it at all, and diplomats such as Gu Weijun and Yan Huiqing didn't mention it.

"Alas!"

Zhou Hexuan sighed and put down the newspaper, he had no reason to despise Gu Weijun and Yan Huiqing, because it was too difficult for diplomats in the Republic of China to do.

The lack of diplomacy in a weak country is not really the key, the key is that the attitude of the Nationalist Government in Nanjing is vacillating. The central government has no mature diplomatic strategy at all, and the attitude of Chang Kaishen and those politicians has changed back and forth, changing day by day, what do you want diplomats to do?

The funniest thing is Chang Kaishen's views on Japan, Zhou Hexuan has said countless times that he must be wary of the expansion of Japanese militarism.

Chang Kaishen also saw this, but what was his idea?

Chang Kaishen actually made such a speech publicly: "Judging from the current situation in Japan, it is very clear that their soldiers want to form a fascist party and push it to the rule of the party...... At present, Japan's education level has long been completely universalized, and the intellectual knowledge of ordinary people, like that of the imperialist countries in the neighborhood, has reached more than 90 percent of the people who can read and write, and at the same time, the national character is so strong that it cannot be compared with ...... other countries."

Well, Lao Chiang believed that the quality of the Japanese people was very high, so the fascist dictatorship could not succeed, and as long as the Japanese fascist forces fell, Japan's moderate cabinet would be in power, and the Northeast issue could be resolved by diplomatic means at that time.

When Zhou Hexuan saw Chang Kaishen's speech, he was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, he couldn't figure out whether Lao Jiang was really innocent, or deliberately fooled the Chinese people and comforted himself.

Why did Zhou Hexuan not want to talk to Chang Kaishen about the Fa that day, but changed the topic and talked about the Huang Lao School?

Because Legalism is to play dictatorship, all the awesome Legalist characters belong to the king's eagle dog lackey. On the contrary, Huang Laozhixue advocates small government, as long as the law does not prohibit it, it is not guilty of blowing up the earth.

Just by looking at Chang Kaishen's speech to fool the people, I knew that he wanted to go all the way to the dark.

Why? Because after Chang Kaishen's speech, he talked about Sino-Japanese friendship and banned all anti-Japanese activities among the people. The reason is to do a good job in people-to-people exchanges between the two countries in advance, and only after the Japanese fascist forces have stepped down can we talk about the issue of recovering Northeast China.

Zhou Hexuan has a sentence in his heart, "Mom sells batches", he is simply not unhappy!

Is Chang Kaishen a fool?

Of course not!

He is acting, making excuses for his non-anti-Japanese resistance. In fact, he was more nervous than anyone else, and he had already brought Zhu Peide to formulate a defense plan for the Songhu area, for fear that one day Japan would attack Shanghai again.

Okay, Zhou Hexuan is angry, but he can't take care of that anymore. He is facing a more serious problem - will the women of the family be furious when he brings his Western lover home?
